Well, it was idyllic until the charter boats poured in and the evening karaoke started up with one after another American murdering our favourite songs.

Moved south round Treasure Point to a much quieter Privateer Bay and dropped the anchor in translucent waters and found a ray directly beneath the boat. Snorkelled around some caves with colourful small fish nibbling around what remains of the coral, which is not much, sadly. What an exquisite view of the islands at sunset! Less glamorously, Jonnie had another go at the perennially leaky mast seal (or not) at the where it goes through the deck.
